Ingredients
Scale
- 2–3 cups frozen peach slices
- 1 to 1.5 cups lemonade
- Sweetener (optional): honey, maple syrup, agave nectar, or simple syrup
- Handful of ice (about 1/2 cup)
Instructions
- Gather Your Ingredients: First things first, get everything ready. You’ll need your frozen peach slices, your preferred lemonade, any optional sweetener, and a handful of ice if you plan to use it. Make sure your blender is clean and ready for action!
- Load the Blender: Carefully place the frozen peach slices into your high-speed blender. Next, pour in about 1 to 1.5 cups of lemonade. If you're adding any optional sweetener, drizzle it in now. If you're using ice, add a small handful on top of the peaches.
- Blend Until Smooth: Secure the lid on your blender and start blending on a low setting, gradually increasing to high. You’ll want to blend until the mixture is completely smooth and reaches a thick, slushy consistency.
- Scrape and Adjust: You might need to pause the blender occasionally and use a tamper or a long spoon to push down any frozen chunks clinging to the sides. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash more lemonade and continue blending. If it's too thin, add a few more frozen peaches or a bit more ice and blend again.
- Taste and Sweeten (If Needed): Once it's smooth, give it a quick taste. If you feel it needs a bit more sweetness or a more pronounced lemony tang, add more sweetener, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, or a tiny pinch of salt to brighten the flavors, then blend for another 10-15 seconds.
- Serve Immediately: Pour your perfectly blended Frozen Peach Lemonade into tall glasses. Garnish with a fresh peach slice, a lemon wedge, or a sprig of mint. Enjoy the ultimate summer slushie right away!
